We all heard the rationalizations of Clinton haters during the primaries: “I am not against women. only against this particular one.
Now, here’s another one they are against – but trust me, they do love women!
The legacy of Geraldine Ferraro was supposed to be that no one would ever go on a blind date with history again.
and ends with
“The P.T.A. is great preparation for dealing with the K.G.B.,” President Palin murmurs to Todd, as they kiss in the final scene while she changes Trig’s diaper. “Now that Georgia’s safe, how ’bout I cook you up some caribou hot dogs and moose stew for dinner, babe?”
Quite remarkably, she went through a whole anti-women column without mentioning Hillary…
Suddenly a governor experience for VP is less than no experience on top pf the ticket…Silly me, I didn’t consider the wisdom of the penis which makes the need for a resume irrelevant
And of course Obama campaign is rattled, – see that too the media is back to “women back in the kitchen” mode and the Oborg is knowingly concocting disgusting falsehoods (now debunked) on Palin and abusing the potential voters even more.
And to think they almost got away with it the first time!
Those campaign memos were released. Forget the fact that they only showed Hillary chose to take the high road, over the advice of some. The meme was emerging and was flaunted by all – from M0Do to 0borg:
She didn’t “lose” because of the sexism. There was never any sexism. She “lost” because she ran a poor campaign. (0bama loves doing this – he dedicated pages in his book to Keyes running a poor campaign)
But they do love the women! Just not any woman who may be in a position of power.
But it’s all worth it! because after all, we get this guy
..Updating with Kristen Powers excellent editorial
A BRILLIANT TRAP MAKES DEMS THE MALE CHAUVINISTS
she quotes:
One Obama supporter and political operative blogged, “In picking an unknown, untested half-a-term governor from Alaska . . . John McCain is following in a long line of reckless men who have rolled the dice for a beauty queen.”
Kristen thinks
I can’t help wondering if this is a trap. The McCain camp watched and learned as Obama supporters offended Hillary supporters by their treatment of her. The McCainiacs had to know that this group is incapable of behaving, that Palin would bring out their worst instincts.
One top Republican said to me: “Just wait until she is debating Joe Biden and he starts attacking or condescending to her. Hillary voters are going to say, ‘Oh yeah, I remember this.’ “

Ms. Dowd and the others of her Demockacrat, liberal and leftist bent finally, now, get exposed as what the rest of us — or, at least, lots of the rest of us — have known them to be for a long time: whining, fascistic misogynists — really, misnathropes — who simultaneously are cultural, social, class and ancestry racists.
If nothing else, John McCain’s pick of Gov. Sarah Palin highlights this.
But that won’t be all.
In his four years as president and her as vice president, the Republicans and conservatives will establish their bona fides for having had the audacity to chose a woman, change the face of the Republican-conservative coalition and — dare we mention? — infuse Gov. Palin with the credentials to actually be the first woman to be president.
We should thank the DLLs and their fascist standard bearer Barack H. Obama, or whatever his real name is, for all this.

Amen to both of you!
And the last Reagan Democrat has committed to voting for the Republican ticket. (They woke up from a coma and just got caught up on the news.)
Pathetic.

I haven’t been this pissed of since the 70’s (and I work in the IT industry, which isn’t exactly female-friendly). I am in FULL feminist mode now. Anyone know where I can get a bumper sticker that says “A Vote for Obama is a Vote Against Your Mama”?

EOF – We are mind-melding!
Great post.

Palin is a good choice.
Insofar as Obama’s tactics are concerned, nothing new.
Palin’s policies might have been successfully challenged by Clinton, who had policies, but not by Obama, who has none: having three conflicting policies on one issue is to have none.

I particularly love this post of yours!
And that pic of the trolls roasting Barbie is totally da bomb!

Yea, it sure made me laugh, because it points out how silly they will appear in attacking the ‘EVIL WOMAN’. Oh, and that one, and that one, and that one…too! Gosh they are everywhere…
What to do…

terrific post!
After the unrelenting misogynistic attacks on Senator Clinton, I am unsurprised to see more of the same directed at Palin. The difference this time? The DNC stayed silent while the MSM and BO’s minions savaged Hillary Clinton. I doubt the GOP will do the same.
PUMA!

I hold O, Dean, and Pelosi responsible for the misogynistic attitude of the Democratic Party. If the attacks on Gov. Palin and her daughters continue, the American people should turn their backs on the Three Stooges of Slander. For the first time in my adult life I am ASHAMED of the Democratic Party.

after the RBC meeting MAC spoke to many of us on the conference call and promised to appoint many women to high positions. He is ALREADY living up to the promises he made us.
That is why we elect people to represent our interests and he is already doing so.
Thank you MAC.

I have no doubt the GOP will stand up for Palin and defend her against the sexism. The Dems just can’t help themselves…you’d think they would’ve learned a lesson by now, but I’m sure they could care less. After all, BO benefited greatly from the rampant sexist attacks on Hillary. He’s hoping for more of the same

Ah, a screen shot of the venerable DU. They are deranged — and I say that slowly and deliberately, deraaaaaanged — and have become the “freepers” they claim to hate so much. There is no difference. I checked in there today, and Palin gets the same treatment, page after page. My favorite thread: Palin may be plotting her son’s death in Iraq to cover up what he knows about her “baby.” Not kidding. Not. Kidding!
There are so many people I no longer recognize.
And that Maureen Dowd screed? I mean, I think of her rather as an Ann Coulter figure so it’s not that I expect her do anything but to dowderize her thing, but I’ve always been puzzled as to how the NYT could publish her and still be considered a serious newspaper. (Not by me, but by a lot of other people who make far more money than I do.)
The trolls roasting the barbie doll was painfully spot-on. Emphasis on “painfully”. Sigh.

Some psychiatrist needs to look into them. On that kos thread, where they were KNOWINGLY making up the story about Palin’s baby, one was wondering if this was not …a Rove trap!

Appointed is not elected. Palin is a sad case for the advancement of women. Indebted to John McCain ?? No way!
